Commit Message

Eduard Zingerman Nov. 10, 2022, 2:43 p.m. UTC
Clang's `__attribute__((btf_decl_tag("...")))` is represented in BTF
as a record of kind BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG with `type` field pointing to
the type annotated with this attribute. This commit adds
reconstitution of such attributes for BTF dump in C format.

BTF doc says that BTF_KIND_DECL_TAGs should follow a target type but
this is not enforced and tests don't honor this restriction.
This commit uses hashmap to map types to the list of decl tags.
The hashmap is filled incrementally by the function
`btf_dump_assign_decl_tags` called from `btf_dump__dump_type` and
`btf_dump__dump_type_data`.

It is assumed that total number of types annotated with decl tags is
relatively small, thus some space is saved by using hashmap instead of
adding a new field to `struct btf_dump_type_aux_state`.

It is assumed that list of decl tags associated with a single type is
small. Thus the list is represented by an array which grows linearly.

To accommodate older Clang versions decl tags are dumped using the
following macro:

 #if __has_attribute(btf_decl_tag)
 #define __btf_decl_tag(x) __attribute__((btf_decl_tag(x)))
 #else
 #define __btf_decl_tag(x)
 #endif

The macro definition is emitted upon first call to `btf_dump__dump_type`.

Clang allows to attach btf_decl_tag attributes to the following kinds
of items:
- struct/union                   supported
- struct/union field             supported
- typedef                        supported
- global variables               supported
- function prototype parameters  supported
- function                       not applicable
- function parameter             not applicable
- local variables                not applicable

this can't happen, BTF IDs don't go up to UINT_MAX even, let's drop
unnecessary check

this is a nice and simple optimization, I like it

but this is an overkill, it should not fail and btf_dump is not the
place to log bugs in hashmap, please do just

(void)hashmap__set(...);

should there be btf_dump_emit_decl_tags(d, decl_tags, -1) somewhere
here to emit tags of FUNC_PROTO itself?

I'm actually not sure we want those tags on binary data dump.
Generally data dump is not type definition dump, so this seems
unnecessary, it will just distract from data itself. Let's drop it for
now? If there would be a need we can add it easily later.

Actually, I have not found a way to attach decl tag to a FUNC_PROTO itself:

  typedef void (*fn)(void) __decl_tag("..."); // here tag is attached to typedef
  struct foo {
    void (*fn)(void) __decl_tag("..."); // here tag is attached to a foo.fn field
  }
  void foo(void (*fn)(void) __decl_tag("...")); // here tag is attached to FUNC foo
                                                // parameter but should probably 
                                                // be attached to
                                                // FUNC_PROTO parameter instead.

Also, I think that Yonghong had reservations about decl tags attached to
FUNC_PROTO parameters.
Yonghong, could you please comment?

Well, this is the only place where VARs are processed, removing this code
would make the second patch in a series useless.
But I like my second patch in a series :) should I just drop it?
I can extract it as a separate series and simplify some of the existing
data dump tests.

I'll need to check with Yonghong, but I think what happens right now
with decl_tag being attached to FUNC instead of its underlying
FUNC_PROTO might be a bug (or maybe it's by design, but certainly is
quite confusing as FUNC itself doesn't have arguments, so
component_idx != -1 is a bit weird).

But regardless if Clang allows you to express it in C code today or
not, if we support decl_tags on func proto args, for completeness
let's support it also on func_proto itself (comp_idx == -1). You can
build BTF manually for test, just like you do it for func_proto args,
right?

yep, data dump tests can be completely orthogonal, send them
separately if you are attached to that code ;)

but for decl_tags on dump_type_data() I'd rather be conservative for
now, unless in practice those decl_tags will turn out to be needed

Currently, btf decl tag is not supported to attach FUNC_PROTO 
parameters. We could add support in clang, do we have an actual use case
for this? if there is a use case, we can add support for it.

BTW, current use case of decl tag in the kernel is from Kumar's link 
list patch set:

https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20221114191547.1694267-23-memxor@gmail.com/

+#define __contains(name, node) __attribute__((btf_decl_tag("contains:" 
#name ":" #node)))

to tag the struct member bpf_list_head as below:

struct foo {
	struct bpf_list_node node;
	int data;
};

struct map_value {
	struct bpf_list_head head __contains(foo, node);
};

I can construct the BTF manually, but I need a place in C where
__decl_tag would be printed for such proto and currently there is no
such place.

As Yonghong suggests in a sibling comment there are currently no
use-cases for decl tags on functions, function protos or function
proto parameters. I suggest to drop these places from the current
patch and get back to it when the need arises.

after func prototype definition:

$ cat t.c
#include <stdio.h>

typedef int (* ff)(void *arg) __attribute__((nonnull(1)));

static
int blah(void *x) { return (int)(long)x; }

int main() {
        int (*f1)(void *arg) __attribute__((nonnull(1))) = blah;
        ff f2 = blah;

        blah(NULL);
        f1(NULL);
        f2(NULL);

        printf("%lx %lx\n", (long)f1, (long)f2);
        return 0;
}

$ cc -g t.c -Wnonnull && ./a.out
t.c: In function ‘main’:
t.c:13:9: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
   13 |         f1(NULL);
      |         ^~
t.c:14:9: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
   14 |         f2(NULL);
      |         ^~
401126 401126

Note that blah(NULL) doesn't generate a warning, which means nonnull
attributes are applied only to func_proto.

decl_tags for functions and function protos are natural extensions of
decl_tags for fields/structs/variables, so let's do the proper support
for all conceivable use cases instead of doing this in a few months
again. There is not ambiguity here.


And btw, we do have decl_tags for FUNCs right now, and that seems
wrong, because FUNC itself doesn't have arguments, it only points to
FUNC_PROTO. So it seems like decl_tags should be moved to FUNC_PROTO
instead anyways?
